And if you have questions, you can get answers. I try to stop there whenever we go to Montana :D
I believe the movies you are speaking of is Gods and Generals along with the movie Gettysburg. Even though historically not accurate both movies are very good. They are based on the books by Michael Shaara Killer Angels and Gods and Generals. Also by Sharra was the Last Full Measure. All 3 are must read books for the Civil War buff.
